Purchase College, State University of New York is partnering with Dutchess Community College, Rockland Community College and Sullivan County Community College to increase the number of students from underrepresented groups (primarily African Americans and Hispanics, with a few American Indians and Pacific Islanders) who successfully complete baccalaureate degrees in biomedical and behavioral sciences. This new Partnership for Excellence Bridges Program builds upon the success of the current program that has achieved 96% transfer rate and 71% bachelor degree completion in biomedical and behavioral sciences. This new Partnership program has significant changes that focus attention and resources on the two-year partner schools to improve competitiveness of their science graduates. It will replicate at the two-year institutions an integrated system of developmental activities (skills assessment, academic advising, early warning system, freshman seminars, and tutoring) that has successfully enhanced student engagement at Purchase. (Each two- year partner has committed to begin partial funding of these activities in years 4 and 5 and to take over full funding at the end of the grant period.) The program will also provide skills-building activities that will increase the capacity of students to advance to increasingly rigorous content in the sciences (five- week residential Summer Research Program, Research Methods Workshop, and web-based training in responsible conduct of research). Two program components will enhance the level of continuity for students: faculty collaboration will create integrated syllabi for all introductory science courses at the four partner institutions and Joint Admissions. In order to ensure leadership support for the integrated system of developmental activities at each two-year institution, this Partnership will implement an innovative series of meetings with Presidents and Chief Academic Officers of all partner institutions to build an infrastructure of communication between academic leadership and faculty around issues of student outcomes and program challenges. This will ensure support for the program and sustainability beyond the grant period. The external evaluator will conduct both formative and summative evaluation activities that are designed to inform programmatic decisions about "what's working" and provide evidence about the impact of program initiatives on participants' skills and abilities. The Partnership will increase by 50% the overall transfer rate of Dutchess from 20.3% to 30.5%, Rockland from 11.5% to 17.3%, and Sullivan from 18.9% to 28.4%. It will ensure that 96% of the Bridges Scholars will transfer to baccalaureate degree programs in biomedical or behavioral sciences. It will ensure that 80% of those Bridges Scholars who transferred to a four-year institution successfully complete their baccalaureate degrees in biomedical or behavioral sciences.

纽约的州立大学购买学院与达奇斯社区学院合作， 罗克兰社区学院和沙利文县社区学院，以增加数量， 来自代表性不足的群体的学生（主要是非洲裔美国人和西班牙裔美国人， 美国印第安人和太平洋岛民）， 生物医学和行为科学。这一新的卓越桥梁计划伙伴关系建立 在目前的计划取得成功，已达到96%的转移率和71%的学士学位 完成生物医学和行为科学。这一新的合作伙伴计划具有重要意义 将注意力和资源集中在两年制合作学校以提高竞争力的变化 他们的科学毕业生。它将在两年制院校复制一个综合系统， 发展活动（技能评估，学术咨询，预警系统，新生 研讨会和辅导），成功地提高了学生的参与购买。(Each两个- 一个国际年伙伴已承诺开始为第4年和第5年的这些活动提供部分资金，并接管 在补助期结束时全额资助）。该计划还将提供技能建设活动， 将提高学生的能力，以推进科学越来越严格的内容（五- 为期一周的住宅夏季研究计划，研究方法研讨会和基于网络的培训， 研究的责任）。两个方案组成部分将提高连续性水平， 学生：教师合作将为所有入门科学课程创建综合教学大纲 四个合作机构和联合招生。为了确保领导层对综合方案的支持， 在每一个两年期机构的发展活动系统中，这一伙伴关系将实施一个 与所有伙伴机构的校长和首席学术官员举行创新的系列会议， 围绕以下问题建立学术领导和教师之间的沟通基础设施： 学生成绩和计划挑战。这将确保对该计划的支持和可持续性 在补助期之外。外部评价员将进行形成性评价和总结性评价 旨在为方案决策提供关于“什么在起作用”的信息的活动， 关于计划倡议对参与者技能和能力影响的证据。该伙伴关系将 将达奇斯的整体转会率从20.3%提高到30.5%，罗克兰从11.5%提高到 17.3%，沙利文从18.9%上升到28.4%。它将确保96%的桥梁学者将转移 生物医学或行为科学的学士学位课程。它将确保80%的 那些转学到四年制大学的桥梁学者成功完成了他们的学业。 生物医学或行为科学学士学位。
